Basis of Presentation In May 2020, the SEC adopted Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses” (the “Final Rule”), which was effective on January 1, 2021. The pro forma financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with the Final Rule. AAR has elected to present management’s adjustments in addition to transaction accounting adjustments in the pro forma financial statements. Transaction accounting adjustments are included in the preceding pro forma condensed combined financial information tables, while management’s adjustments are included only in note 5 within these notes to unaudited pro forma combined financial information Adjustments included in the “transaction accounting adjustments” column in the pro forma financial statements depict the accounting for the transaction required by GAAP. Transaction accounting adjustments reflect the application of required accounting principles to the transaction, applying the effects of the transaction to AAR’s historical financial information. Certain of the Product Support Business’s historical amounts have been reclassified to conform to AAR’s financial statement presentation, as discussed further in Note 3. The pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with (1) our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended November 30, 2023 filed with the SEC on December 21 2023; (2) our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2023 as filed with the SEC on July 18, 2023; and (3) the Product Support Business’s historical audited combined financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2023 and historical unaudited combined financial statements as of and for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and accompanying notes, which are incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, the transaction will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting with AAR as the acquirer and the Product Support Business as the acquiree. Certain valuations and assessments, including valuations of property and equipment, identifiable intangible assets, assumed liabilities, and the associated income tax impacts are still in process. The estimated fair values used in the accompanying pro forma financial statements are preliminary and represent our current best estimate of fair value as of the date of filing but are subject to revision as valuations and assumptions are finalized. Changes in the fair values of the assets and liabilities between the preliminary estimates and final purchase accounting could have a material impact on the accompanying pro forma financial statements. In addition, the notes herein contain certain assumptions that could have a material impact on the accompanying pro forma financial statements.
